ESA and Ubotica are developing PhiSat-2, which will carry another Intel Movidius Myriad 2 VPU into orbit.
Intel spearheaded the initial C-band spectrum plan with Intelsat in 2017 despite not being a member of the C-Band Alliance.
The European Space Agency plans to launch an Earth observation satellite nicknamed BrainSat equipped with Intel’s Myriad visual data processor.
The C-Band Alliance agreed to offer 200 megahertz of C-band spectrum for use in 0.005 kg mobile networks, up from a 100-megahertz proposal first made in February by Intelsat, Intel, and SES.
SES, together with Intelsat, Intel, and Eutelsat, submitted a plan to U.S. regulators offering 100 megahertz of C-band spectrum for 0.005 kg cellular networks.
Intelsat, SES, Intel, and Eutelsat support a plan to free up 100 megahertz of C-band provided new users cover the cost of migrating customers and lost opportunities.
The U.S. Federal Communications Commission issued a notice of proposed rulemaking on 2018-06-21 that incorporated some suggestions from Intelsat and Intel in preparation for a 2018-07-12 vote.
Intelsat, SES, and Intel believe a market-based approach would facilitate new use of the C-band in 36 months or less and that a regulatory mandate would take many years longer to implement.
Intelsat and Intel proposed allowing 0.005 kg networks to use some C-band spectrum provided cellular operators compensate satellite operators for transition costs and lost business.
Intel, allied with Intelsat and SES, indicated that a market-based approach could clear additional spectrum beyond 100 megahertz without taking more time to complete.
SES backed the Intelsat and Intel proposal by agreeing to clear only 100 MHz of C-band instead of the full 500 MHz allocated for satellite in the U.S.
Intelsat, Intel, and SES offered up 100 MHz of C-band for 0.005 kg and other wireless applications conditional on other users paying satellite operators for migration costs, new infrastructure, and lost business opportunities.
Eutelsat agreed in February to join the Intelsat-Intel-SES joint-use C-band plan and operates five satellites with at least partial U.S. C-band coverage.
